30-Minute Low-Impact Dance Grooves Workout

[@notnotme3918]

Best channel ever for people who wants to try different workouts

[@pichirobi]

ok this is gonna sound just a little silly but i teared up during this. i've been working so hard towards keeping my body in shape and sometimes it's hard to find the willpower. i kept stumbling during the dancing bits of this video and i kept telling myself it was because i was clumsy and overweight and uncoordinated. but, i pulled through! i kept pushing, and by the time it came to the cool down stretch, and the lead dancer reassured the audience that steps are steps no matter how small, and it felt so personal. thank you for making me smiles gals, this is such a wholesome form of self love and i'm excited to explore more videos 💗

[@banrikalyngdoh6090]

It's so nice to hear you encouraging yourself. How are you now, with the workout? Are you seeing results?

[@spookyghost2932]

You said it! I felt the same thing. This is the first exercise I’ve done in a long time and even though it hurt and was difficult, I felt inspired to push through. It was so encouraging to hear her kind words. Love this so much!

[@EsiriE]

Honestly that made me feel good too.

[@jackiecolbert3915]

Yes I agree and thanks for sharing

[@kimberlym610]

Me too! I got a little teary when she said that.

[@MeliMant]

My reaction to this work-out was so unexpected, I am crying. I am covered in sweat but my heart is filled with so much joy and I feel so grateful to have this body of mine, nothing at all as the beauty standards of our society but so amazing! I mean, I AM MOVING! Thank you a lot for this, your words encouraged me a lot and I will be coming back tomorrow to feel like this once again and everyday!

[@xstanstanstan]

Very overweight and I'm a writer, so I'm mostly sitting down all day, plus I've been very sick with Crohns disease for the past year. I realized I need to get myself up and moving again and today was the first day. I can only do three minutes so far, which I know isn't a lot, but I'm doing it every 90 minutes plus some stretching. I'm hoping each day I can go a little more until I can do the whole thing and move on to the next. Very excited to start my journey!

[@wonderwoman5528]

Nice work. It can’t be easy having to contend with crohns x

You've got this! Hope your journey took you to feeling good in your body, energized and healthy

I have struggled moving recently. My joints hurt, I’m still fairly young, in my late 20s and I have difficulties with my digestion and chronic conditions. This helped me move today, thank you so much. I’ve been trying so hard to get back into moving, I used to be very active and in the last few years, I have not had any willpower or motivation and stopped my body from moving completely. To my surprise, I am sweating a lot and I didn’t even realise until I finished the workout. Thank you again and everyone else’s comments helped & encouraged me today.

Perfect workout video! I want to try this one. Thank you.

[@irenepedrosasepulveda5122]

I really love Deja's positive vibes and how she makes it so much fun. This channel is the best discovery of the quarantine! I'm from Spain and here we can't leave the house at all so this is just great to do at home! Thanks!

[@pagepeach8852]

Hello Irene, we also left Spain just before the quarantine, (Mallorca). glad to see you’re keeping fit.

Deja is really awesome. I'm looking for more of her videos now. She really makes this workout fun.

[@YogaWithBird]

Perfect! I’m not a huge fan of jumping so this is a great balance ❤️

[@ember8287]

Thank you for your kind words at the end. This is the first time I’ve finished a workout in almost a year, due to severe mental health problems. Your kindness helped me expel my judgmental thoughts and make it all the way to the end, even though I was stumbling and had to slow down at many parts. Hopefully some time soon I’ll be healthy enough to give it my all the entire workout

[@pettitt31]

Thank you for announcing what you’re going to do in enough time to switch gears!!! To many videos don’t and it gets frustrating. There’s always an assumption I’ve done that video enough to mimic no problems. Some people need the time to transition. Thank you again!!

[@sophiadavenport3959]

Dance workouts are so fun to do especially in the morning.

[@Ainennke]

This was great. I really appreciated the way Deja explained each move before it came, so I wasn't completely lost at the transitions like I normally am.

[@SharadaDreamer]

Just in case you needed a reason to convince you to do this workout....I am disabled but I needed something low impact to do for exercise. Dancing is what I used to do, so I was excited when this said "low impact dance workout." And it's absolutely perfect. I just finished the workout, and it wasn't too much for me, and they take little 8 count dance breaks that had me feeling like I was in my dance classes again. Thank you so much for providing the workout instruction I needed, but for also choosing an instructor like her. Her words of encouragement throughout the whole video hit home for me, and I feel confident to start on this journey of trusting my body again. Thank you so much. If your disabled or suffering with chronic illness then this is 10/10 the workout for you!

[@helenpowell3323]

What a lovely teacher, she was so encouraging.

[@maliagoodman8524]

Mitzi, 30 minute low impact, best class out there for me. I am 68, in Heart Failure but your classes are muscle controlled and simple moves. I can control HR by arms. Thanks.

[@BrookeInProgress]

I don’t understand how this made me sweat SO MUCH but my face was literally dripping by the end! So good!

[@MaleahDiggs15]

This was such an amazing workout! I was sweating but smiling the entire time. The best part of this workout is that it is low impact and no jumping! I love what Deja said during the cooldown, "You chose to move today, and you didn't give up. Thank yourself for pushing through it all. All of these steps that you took today kept you moving on your own path." Absolutely true! Thank you, PopSugar for an amazing low impact workout

[@samira1584]

This instructor is wonderful! So positive and cute in a natural way. This one was great!

[@SonyaUnderwood-s3i]

This video is so helpful. I have not worked out in about 2 1/2 years. Thanks for this video. Remember ladies, if you have not worked out in a while always start out with Low-Impact and work your way up way to medium and then high Impact. Keep working out ladies and strengthen those things that remain.

[@CutePokapipi]

This helped me during the unhappiest days of my life during early covid when I lost my gorgeous darling Mother. 4 years late you guys are still my favourite . Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

[@Halkpelt]

I got put on medical rest for a few months . Doctors said to stick to low impact workouts with minimal weights . As a body builder I felt like my life was over , fitness is my outlet and it hurt to hear. But then I found this and it occurred to me there’s still things I can do to move my body and keep me happy. Thanks for this :) I hope to get better with the dance moves over time .

I have had ACL and meniscus surgery in both of my knees. This workout was perfect: low impact on my joints, but lovely speed up of the heart rate 💜 Thank you Deja

[@valerie5817]

I have tried a few low impact video dance workouts and this particular one is my favorite because Deja keeps encouraging us, and flipping the "own it" into positive ownership of taking care of our bodies. In addition, I started this tonight with low back-ache, and now it is gone. Like some other commenters, I am very slow to learn dance moves and frequently lose my balance, but Deja's encouragement makes it fun and low-stress on my psyche and ego. Thank you for posting this video.

[@SandraDee590]

[@janiceallen5055]

Been a little down with Covid. Been doing hitfit routines. While effective, they are not a lot of fun. Googled dance exercise and found the Popsugar Fitness routines. All the instructors are so friendly and encouraging. Their kind words bring tears to my eyes. And the dance moves are SO FUN. Thank you so much Popsugar instructors.

Still in the pandemic two years after the video was originally posted...I am so grateful I found this today! I tried a different one of your workouts that was a little too advanced, and I was already feeling pretty bad about my body so I almost gave up. Thank you for the kind words and fun dances- it made me happy to move again and less focused on my appearance since I was busy smiling :)

Love this video. I've just started working out again for the first time in years, due to severe depression. This video in fun and gives a challenging workout that anyone can do. The instructor is so inspiring and can make me a bit teary eyed with her encouragement. I'm absolutely loving POPSUGAR videos in general. I highly recommend them to anyone wanting to have a fun but useful workout.

[@AWickedSister2024]

This little lady is warm and caring and encouraging through the workout. It is truly low impact but gets you moving. The dance moves are fun. As we are working through having to be at home while all the gyms are closed (because of covid-19) I can use this workout to tide me over until I can go back to the gym and do aqua classes again. Thank you!

Wow, it's March 23, 2020... we're on community quarantine, so i'm home all day... this is my second routine of the day! Great video for those who like dancing alone! Thank you so much!

[@roar6047]

I really appreciate this Low-Impact dance workout Popsugar! I'm really passionate about fitness, actually became certified to be a Group Fitness Instructor on the side because of this passion. But I've been going through some severe depression the past few months and all my usual hobbies that I enjoy (re: fitness) it's been hard to get the usual joy out of it, and there are some days, like today where I don't want to do anything at all. But these low-impact workouts make it attainable for me to get moving and I always feel better afterwards. So appreciate this and all your energy in the video a lot

[@eileenpeyton7196]

This was so fun!! I'm older but love to dance and love the challenge of learning the new steps. I stunk at it mostly "getting it" at the end of the step, sequence BUT I HAD A BALL and kept moving. From one teacher (not dance) to another, this instructor KNOWS how to teach and INSPIRE!! Thanks. I"ll keep doing this one, master it a little more and keep having fun. I lOVE seeing different body shapes also. We come in all sizes and shapes. Woman power!! I was born petite, got those genes. Nothing to do with me! But your girls move so MUCH better than I can! I thank each of you for my work out today!!

[@therealnadia]

I don't feel dizzy which can happen on my period if I over do it with cardio. I avoided the ab section due to my cramps but I still feel great!!

@@DejaRiley Hi Deja! I truly am enjoying the dance workouts, too! You have a perfect balance of energy and positivity! Question- has PopSugar considered filming a dance video where we look at your backs- so you're facing away from the camera? I know in a video it's nice to see your faces- but I feel that watching someone from behind is a much more natural and fun way to learn a dance. The learner doesn't have to mirror movements and feels confident about following the dance.

[@DejaRiley]
